About the Summit and the Oregon Clean Grid Collaborative

Please join the Oregon Clean Grid Collaborative for the first annual Oregon Clean Grid Summit! Join us at the World Forestry Center in Portland for a day filled with panel presentations, tabletop discussions, and networking opportunities focused on regional energy market and transmission.

This event will offer insights into the role of regional energy market and transmission development in achieving our clean energy mandates, delivering energy affordability and reliability, and supporting meaningful job creation in Oregon and the region. Panel discussions will feature industry experts, utility and government representatives, and community leaders from across Oregon, focusing on timely issues including:

• Regional Market Evolution: Where are we and how do the various market configurations playing out affect Oregon’s electricity grid.
• Transmission, The Pacing Item. How can we build out the infrastructure needed to keep Oregon on track to meeting clean energy mandates and growing our state’s economy.
• Building an Equitable Regional Grid. How can Oregon set the standards for an equitable electricity market and work with our neighbors to ensure those benefits are seen regionwide.

Tabletop discussions will provide a venue to engage in dialogue around how to reliably, affordably, and equitably deliver clean energy to households and businesses in Oregon. Whether you’re a seasoned clean grid expert or just starting out in the field, the Clean Grid Summit is an exciting opportunity to learn, share ideas, and be inspired about Oregon’s clean energy revolution.

The Clean Grid Summit will be hosted by Oregon Clean Grid Collobrative (OGCG).
